ARTICLE 2. Purchase and Sale and Purchase Price

(a) Purchase and Sale. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Seller agrees to sell and Buyer agrees to purchase the Projects. In connection therewith and subject to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Seller shall also (a) convey to Buyer the Personal Property pursuant to the terms of the Xxxx of Sale, and (b) assign to Buyer, and Buyer shall assume pursuant to the Assignment, the Leases, the Guaranties, the Service Contracts, Commission Agreements (the foregoing terms as hereinafter defined) (as well as the other property described in the Assignment), and all other

rights and obligations to be assigned by Seller and assumed by Buyer hereunder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Projects is FIVE HUNDRED SIXTEEN MILLION SIX HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($516,650,000.00) (the “Aggregate Purchase Price”). The value for each of the individual Projects (in each case, the “Purchase Price”) is set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto. The Purchase Price, and, accordingly, the Aggregate Purchase Price is subject to adjustments as set forth in this Article 2.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, at Seller’s election, Seller may structure the transaction contemplated herein by conveying title to the DSF Projects to a newly formed single purpose entity (“SPE”) in which DRLP or DSF is the only member, using the form of conveyance documents contemplated in this Agreement, and then effectuate a transfer of all ownership interests in the SPE to the Buyer or to one or more SPEs formed by the Buyer (each a “DSFSPE”) by an assignment and assumption of membership interest in the SPE in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Assignment of Membership Interest”). Additionally, the Buyer may elect to have Seller convey fee simple title to the DSF Projects to each DSFSPE, and not the Buyer.

(d) Prorations. Buyer and Seller will prorate all income, taxes and expenses relating to each Project on a cash basis (i.e. based solely upon amounts payable in the year in which Closing occurs regardless of when they accrue) as of the date of Closing, based on Buyer’s and Seller’s respective periods of ownership.

(i) Pre-Closing Rent. Except as provided in subparagraph (ii) below, Seller shall pay or credit to the Buyer at the applicable Closing all base or minimum rent (“Base Rent”) and estimated reimbursement payments of operating expenses, taxes and insurance (“Additional Rent”) paid by the Tenant under a Lease for the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, prorated for the number of days during such calendar month from, including and after the date of the Closing. Collectively, Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be referred to as the “Rent.” Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge that rent for the GSA Leases are generally paid one month in arrears during the first week of the following month and any rents collected with respect to such GSA Leases as of the Closing and/or post-Closing that are allocable to the pre-Closing period and/or the date of Closing shall be paid to and for the account of Seller.

(ii) Post-Closing Rent. With respect to each Project, after the Closing Buyer shall make good faith efforts (but without being required to institute any legal action against any Tenant) to collect all unpaid Rents for any period prior to the date of the Closing. Any Rents due and owing Seller before the Closing by a Tenant under a Lease that are unpaid at the date of the Closing, are herein called “Delinquent Rents”. There shall be no cash credit to Seller at the Closing of a Project on account of any Delinquent Rents, but following the Closing, rental and other payments received by the

Buyer or Seller from a Tenant shall be first applied toward the payment of Rent and other charges then currently owed to Buyer, then toward the actual out-of-pocket costs of collection paid to parties other than the managing agent of the Project, and finally such Rents shall be applied toward the payment of Delinquent Rents.

(iii) Real Estate Taxes. Real Estate taxes and assessments (“Taxes”) for each Project will be prorated between Buyer and Seller on a cash basis (i.e., Taxes first coming due during the year in which the Closing occurs will be prorated at Closing, regardless of the year to which such Taxes apply or are accrued). If Taxes due during the year in which the Closing occurs have not been billed or are not ascertainable as of the Closing Date, proration of Taxes shall be based upon the most recently available xxxx for taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there will be no proration for Taxes to the extent a Lease requires a Tenant to pay Taxes either directly to the taxing authorities or by annual reimbursement to Seller, rather than paying estimated amounts therefor to Seller as Additional Rent. With respect to each Project, Seller shall pay all Taxes due prior to the Closing and Buyer shall pay all taxes due on or after Closing.

(iv) Tenant Security Deposits. With respect to each Project, Buyer shall receive a credit, or Seller shall pay Buyer, at the Closing therefore, an amount equal to the total amount of cash security deposits (and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon required by a Lease to be paid to the Tenant) held by Seller pursuant to the applicable Lease, less portions thereof which were applied by Seller after the date of this Agreement in accordance with the Lease to cure defaults by the Tenant under the Lease. At each Closing, Seller will transfer to Buyer any non-cash security held by Seller under the applicable Lease to secure payment and performance under such Lease.

(v) Re-Proration and Reconciliation. The prorations made between Seller and Buyer under this Article 2 may be based on estimates. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if any prorations made at a Closing are based on estimates, then, when the actual amounts are finally determined, Seller and Buyer shall re-prorate post Closing based on actual amounts, and Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall make an appropriate payment to the other based on such re-proration. The re-proration shall be completed on or before June 1st of the year following the year of the Closing. Buyer shall be responsible for reconciling Additional Rent with the Tenants from and after the year of the Closing.

(e) Leasing Costs. Except as set forth in this Article 2(e), (i) all obligations for leasing commissions, landlord’s work, tenant improvements, free rent, and any other concessions or allowances granted to any Tenant (collectively, “Leasing Costs”) pursuant to Leases and lease amendments entered into prior to the Effective Date shall be paid by Seller, and (ii) all Leasing Costs pursuant to leases and lease amendments entered into on or after the Effective Date shall be paid by Buyer. Buyer shall pay for Leasing Costs in connection with the extension or renewal of the initial current term under any Lease, and for expansions of any Building, which are exercised by the Tenant on or after the Effective Date (including any commissions hereafter arising under the Commission Agreements listed on Exhibit J attached hereto). At the applicable Closing, Buyer shall assume those commission agreements set forth on Exhibit J attached hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be responsible for

payment of all Leasing Costs listed in Exhibit N-1 attached hereto, and Buyer shall be responsible for all Leasing Costs listed in Exhibit N-2 attached hereto (the “Buyer Paid Leasing Costs”). At each Closing, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all Buyer Paid Leasing Costs paid by Seller prior to the Closing for the Projects included in such Closing. The provisions of this paragraph of Article 2 shall expressly survive the Closings.

(f) Transaction Costs. Except as set forth below, all costs associated with the formation of Buyer and conveyance of the Projects to the acquiring entity (the “Transaction Costs”) will be borne by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, transfer, recording and deed stamp taxes, intangible taxes, recording costs, escrow closing costs, survey costs, and the cost of owner’s title insurance shall be divided between Seller and Buyer in accordance with the local custom of the state and county in which each Project is located.

Seller and Buyer will each bear the costs of its own financial and legal advisors in connection. CBOP will pay all of the due diligence costs incurred by Buyer.

ARTICLE 3. Xxxxxxx Money

Within one (1) business day after the Effective Date, Buyer shall deposit with First American Title Insurance Company, National Commercial Services Division, 00 X. XxXxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, XX 00000 Attn: Xxxxxx Xxxxx (“Escrow Agent”), xxxxxxx money in the amount of SEVEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($7,500,000.00) (together with all interest earned thereon, the “Xxxxxxx Money”). The Xxxxxxx Money shall be allocated between the Projects as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto; provided that, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Xxxxxxx Money shall continue to be held in escrow until the Tranche 3 Closing, at which the Xxxxxxx Money shall be applied in full to the Purchase Price payable at the Tranche 3 Closing. Whenever the Xxxxxxx Money is by the terms hereof to be disbursed by Escrow Agent, Seller and Buyer agree to promptly execute and deliver such notice or notices as shall be reasonably necessary to authorize Escrow Agent to make such disbursement.

CBOP shall be solely responsible for making the entire Xxxxxxx Money deposit.

ARTICLE 4. Buyer’s Entry on the Projects

(a) Buyer hereby acknowledges that, with the exception of the Project located at 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxx (the Dublin Project”), it has received all of the due diligence items set forth on Exhibit E (the “Seller Deliveries”) and performed its inspections, surveys, examinations, tests and studies of the Projects. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Seller makes no representation or warranty as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Seller Deliveries or any other studies, documents, reports or other information provided to Buyer by Seller. Subject to the Leases, Buyer and its agents shall have the right, from time to time prior to the Closing of the Projects, during normal business hours, to enter upon each Project to confirm the satisfaction of Buyer’s Conditions set forth in Article 8(a). Buyer agrees to give Seller reasonable advance telephonic notice of entry by contacting Xxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Senior Vice President of Duke Realty Corporation at 000-000-0000 and to conduct such entries during normal business hours to the extent practicable. Buyer agrees to conduct all entries on the

Projects in accordance with all applicable laws and in a manner that will not unreasonably interfere with the operations of Seller or the Tenants thereon and will not harm or damage the Projects or cause any claim adverse to Seller or the Tenants, and agrees to repair or restore the Projects to their condition prior to any such entries (to the extent practicable) immediately after conducting the same. Buyer shall not contact the Tenants concerning the Projects without Seller’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), however, Buyer shall have the opportunity to arrange interviews with the Tenants through Seller representatives subject to the availability of the Tenants. Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds Seller and any agent, advisor, representative, affiliate, employee, director, partner, member, beneficiary, investor, servant, shareholder, subsidiary, trustee or other person or entity acting on Seller’s behalf or otherwise related to or affiliated with Seller (collectively, “Seller Related Parties”) harmless from and against any claims for injury or death to persons, damage to the Project or other actual (but not consequential or punitive) losses, damages or claims, including, without limitation, claims of any Tenant(s) then in possession, and including, without limitation, in each instance, reasonable attorneys’ fees and litigation costs, resulting from (i) the entry on the Projects by or any action of, any person or firm entering the Projects on Buyer’s behalf as aforesaid or, (ii) any breach by Buyer of its obligations under this Article 4, or (iii) any liens caused by or on behalf of Buyer, which indemnity shall survive the Closings and any termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to: (i) the negligence of any of the Seller Related Parties or (ii) the mere discovery of a pre-existing condition. Prior to, and as a condition to any entry on the Projects by Buyer or its agents for the purposes set forth herein, if not previously delivered before the Effective Date, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a certificate of insurance evidencing comprehensive general liability coverage (including coverage for contractual indemnities) with a combined single limit of at least $2,000,000.00 and excess umbrella coverage for bodily injury and Project damage in the amount of $5,000,000.00, in a form reasonably acceptable to Seller, covering any activity, accident or damage arising in connection with Buyer or agents of Buyer on the Project, and naming Seller, as an additional insured.

ARTICLE 5. Title and Survey

(a) Deed. At each Closing, Seller shall convey each Project to the Buyer or each DSFSPE by limited or special warranty deed, or similar instrument to the Buyer or its wholly-owned subsidiary (each a “Deed”), which will be subject only to (i) all presently existing and future liens of unpaid taxes or assessments, water rates, water charges and sewer taxes, rents and charges, if any, not yet due and payable (but subject to Article 2(d)(iii)); (ii) all matters of public record affecting title to the Project waived or not objected to by Buyer pursuant to this Article 5 or otherwise reasonably acceptable to Buyer; (iii) the rights of the Tenants under the applicable Leases, as Tenants only; (iv) any matters created or caused solely by Buyer; (iv) use restrictions of record that do not adversely affect the development, operations or expansion of the Project and are not violated by the Building or the intended operations thereof (collectively, the “Permitted Exceptions”). The standard of title set forth in this Article 5(a) also shall apply to the acquisition of the Project pursuant to the Assignment of Membership Interest.

(b) Seller Easements. Buyer agrees that Buyer will not unreasonably withhold Buyer’s consent to the recording of any subdivision plats, easements or similar instruments encumbering a Project for the benefit of adjacent or surrounding properties owned

by Seller (collectively, “Seller Easements”) to be recorded from the date hereof to the Closing Date so long as the Seller Easements do not materially adversely affect the flow of traffic to and from such Project, provided Seller shall notify Buyer of any Seller Easements so desired by Seller by written notice given, if at all, on or before the date that is ten (10) business days from Seller’s receipt of the Survey, and thereafter Seller and Buyer shall use good faith efforts to agree on the nature, location and size of any such Seller Easements as well as the form and substance of the easement agreements relating thereto. Any Seller Easements created, granted and/or reserved by Seller pursuant to this Article 5(b) shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions.

(c) Title and Survey Review. Seller has ordered updated surveys for each Project (the “Surveys”). Buyer shall review the Surveys and the title commitments (“Title Commitments”) to be issued by First American Title Insurance Company, whose address is 00 Xxxxx XxXxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 (“Title Insurer”). Subject to Article 5(c), and except for the Dublin Project, Buyer shall have until the Effective Date to (i) examine the Title Commitments and the Surveys for the Projects, and (ii) give written notice to Seller of any objections that Buyer may have to title or survey (the “Title Objection Notice”). If Buyer shall fail to timely deliver the Title Objection Notice, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such right to object to any title exceptions or defects contained in the Title Commitment or shown on the Survey. If Buyer does timely deliver the Title Objection Notice to Seller, Seller shall elect, by written notice delivered to Buyer within ten (10) business days following Seller’s receipt of the Title Objection Notice (the “Cure Response Period”) to either endeavor to cure or satisfy any particular objection(s) at or prior to Closing or not to so cure or satisfy any particular title objection(s) (the “Title Response Notice”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to adjourn the Closing for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days, in order to undertake to cure or satisfy any particular objection(s) raised by Buyer in the Title Objection Notice, provided, however, that Seller shall notify Buyer, in writing, within three (3) days prior to the scheduled Closing Date, of its election to so adjourn the Closing. To the extent Seller shall fail to deliver the Title Response Notice to Buyer within the time required therefor or shall elect not cure any particular title objection(s) by Closing, then Buyer may elect, by written notice to Seller given within the earlier of (x) five (5) business days after delivery of the Title Response Notice or (y) the expiration of the Cure Response Period, either to (a) partially terminate this Agreement, however, such partial termination shall only affect the Project applicable to such failure of delivery or election, and this Agreement shall otherwise continue in full force and effect, in which case the Xxxxxxx Money allocated to the terminated Project shall be returned to Buyer by Escrow Agent and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder with respect to the terminated Project, except for those which expressly survive any such termination, or (b) waive its objections hereunder and proceed with the transaction pursuant to the remaining terms and conditions of this Agreement, without any reduction in the Purchase Price. Seller shall not be required to cure any matter objected to by Buyer, except that Seller shall be obligated to cure, release of record or omit from the title commitment at or prior to Closing the following: (i) the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or trust deed evidencing any indebtedness owed, or voluntarily assumed or taken subject to by Seller, (ii) tax liens for delinquent Taxes, (iii) mechanics liens for work or materials supplied to the Project and (iv) broker’s liens filed pursuant to an agreement between Seller and a broker. If Buyer fails to so give Seller notice of its election within the timeframe required therefor, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected the option contained in subpart (b) above. If

Seller does so reasonably cure or satisfy, or undertake to reasonably cure or satisfy, such objection to the satisfaction of Buyer, then this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Buyer shall have the right at any time to waive any objections that it may have made and, thereby, to preserve this Agreement in full force and effect.

(d) Title Continuation. If any continuation, update or revision of the title commitments issued by the Title Insurer or the Surveys discloses any claim, lien or exception adversely affecting title to any Project other than the “Permitted Exceptions” and which Buyer is not willing to waive (a “Subsequent Defect”), Buyer shall give written notice thereof to Seller within five (5) business days after Buyer’s receipt of such continuation, update or revision. Buyer and Seller shall have the same rights regarding each Subsequent Defect as are provided in this paragraph with respect to matters set forth in a Title Objection Notice.

ARTICLE 6. Operations Pending Closing

(a) After the Effective Date, without Buyer’s prior written consent, which may be provided by electronic mail, and which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided, however, Buyer’s consent shall be deemed granted in the event Buyer does not object in writing thereto within five (5) business days after Seller requests such consent from Buyer), Seller shall not enter into any new Lease or any modification, amendment, restatement, termination, or renewal of any of the Leases except for letters of understanding, certificates, punch lists and other documents contemplated by the applicable Lease; provided, however, Seller may enter into such agreements if so required by a Lease (e.g. if a Tenant exercises a renewal option or expansion option). Seller shall promptly deliver a copy of any item described in the preceding sentence entered into or received by Seller following the Effective Date. Seller promptly shall deliver to Buyer a copy of any written notice of default given or received by Seller under any Lease from and after the Effective Date.

(b) After the Effective Date, Seller shall have the right to enter into standard service, construction, materials and maintenance contracts necessary for operation and maintenance of a Project (e.g. landscaping, security, parking lot sweeping, garbage removal, etc.), so long as such contracts are either: (i) at competitive rates and terminable upon thirty (30) days’ notice, or (ii) remain Seller’s sole responsibility and are not assigned at Closing. Seller’s execution of such contracts shall not require Buyer’s prior consent, however, Seller shall provide a copy of each said contract to Buyer promptly after its full execution. At or before each Closing, Seller shall terminate, without cost to the Buyer, all existing property management agreements for the Projects relating thereto.

(c) After the Effective Date, Seller also shall continue to maintain all casualty, liability and hazard insurance currently in effect with respect to the Projects to the extent such insurance is in place with respect to the Projects as of the Effective Date, or as required under the Leases.

ARTICLE 7. Post-Closing Matters

(a) GSA Leases. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the transfer of any GSA Lease is subject to the provisions of the Assignment of Claims Act and regulations

promulgated thereunder. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in assembling and filing for each GSA Lease (i) a letter to the United States General Services Administration or other appropriate agency indicating that Buyer should be recognized as the new lessor under the GSA Leases, and (ii) a novation agreement and other attachments thereto required to be provided under the Federal Acquisition Regulation System as attachments to novation agreement or reasonably requested by the Government contracting officer. The parties shall utilize commercially good faith efforts to obtain Government execution of each novation agreement promptly after Closing. Buyer agrees to provide all documentation and signature required for novation agreement requests.

(b) Xxxxxx Pointe II GSA Lease. The GSA Lease for approximately 244,561 square feet at Xxxxxx Pointe II (the “NP GSA Lease”) is scheduled to commence on June 6, 2011. The GSA Tenant has the right to terminate NP GSA Lease at the end of the third lease year. In the event the GSA Tenant exercises such termination option, DRLP shall master lease the NP GSA Lease space (the “Master Lease Space”) from Buyer for the remainder of the initial term of the NP GSA Lease. Upon receipt of notice from the GSA Tenant that it intends to exercise the termination option, Buyer and Seller shall enter into a master lease agreement (the “Master Lease”) in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer and DRLP and containing, among other provisions, the following terms and conditions: (i) a lease term that commences on the date that the NP GSA Lease terminates and expires on the date that the NP GSA Lease initial term would have expired if the termination option had not been exercised, (ii) grants to the master tenant full and exclusive possession and control of the Master Lease Space, including, but not limited to, possession and control for the purpose of leasing the Master Lease Space, and (iii) provides that master tenant shall, during the term, pay to master landlord monthly base rent and operating expenses and additional rent in the amounts that would have been payable under the NP GSA Lease for the same time period. The monthly rent paid under the Master Lease shall be reduced by the portions of the Master Lease Space that are leased to third parties during the term of the Master Lease, provided that DRLP shall guaranty the obligations under each third party lease to the extent of DRLP’s obligations under the Master Lease. All third party leases of the Master Lease Space shall be subject to prior approval of Buyer in accordance with the terms and conditions governing new leases set forth in the Operating Agreement.

The provisions of this Article 7 shall survive the Closings.

ARTICLE 8. Buyer’s Conditions to Closing

Buyer’s obligation to close under this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction of all of the following conditions (any one of which may be waived in whole or in part by Buyer by notice given in accordance with Article 19) at or prior to Closing), which conditions shall be applied to each of the Closings and the particular Projects included therein:

If the conditions of subsections (i), (ii) (iii), (iv) and (v) above are not satisfied, then, within twenty (20) days after Seller confirms in writing to Buyer of the failure of said conditions, Buyer may elect to proceed to Closing (and Seller shall assign to the Buyer any rights of Seller to any insurance proceeds, if any), or partially terminate this Agreement as to the affected Project, however that such partial termination shall only affect the Project or Projects for which the damage or destruction has occurred, and this Agreement shall otherwise continue in full force and effect. Upon such partial termination, Buyer will receive a refund from Escrow Agent of the applicable portion of the Xxxxxxx Money.

(b) Condemnation. If all or part of a Project is taken by condemnation, eminent domain or by agreement in lieu thereof, or any proceeding to acquire, take or condemn all or part of a Project is threatened or commenced (collectively, a “Taking”), which allows a Tenant to terminate its Lease (and said Tenant does not agree to waive its termination right) or affects more than ten percent (10%) of an affected Project or would restrict (on a permanent basis) ingress and egress to and from the Project or result in a permanent loss of five percent (5%) or more of the parking spaces at the Project (the occurrence of any of the foregoing Takings being hereinafter referred to as a “Material Taking”), Buyer may either (1) partially terminate this Agreement as to the affected Project and receive a refund from Escrow Agent of the applicable portion of the Xxxxxxx Money, and this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect, or (2) proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms hereof, without reduction in the Aggregate Purchase Price. If Seller has received payments from the condemning authority and if Buyer elects to proceed to Closing, Seller shall credit the amount of said payment (not already used by Seller to repair any damage from said condemnation) against the Aggregate Purchase Price at the Closing. If a Taking is not a Material Taking, then the parties shall proceed

to Closing in accordance with the terms hereof, without reduction in the Aggregate Purchase Price, and Seller shall credit the amount of said payment (not already used by Seller to repair any damage from said condemnation) against the Aggregate Purchase Price at the Closing.
